Might be a nickel
might be a brass
the mint is at fault
'cause you were never asked about
the two-headed coin
the two-headed coin
One side is redundant
Its purpose is unclear
You'd be strung up fast
If you spent it around here
the two-headed coin
the two-headed coin
the two-headed coin
the two-headed coin
Can't be saved
cannot be spent
it belongs
to the government
the two-headed coin
the two-headed coin
the two-headed coin
the two-headed coin
Coast to coast and state to state
we watch it circulate
whose pocket will it be in
when they melt it back down again
